The complete 9193-nucleotide sequence of the probable causative agent of AIDS [acquired immune deficiency syndrome], lymphadenopathy-associated virus (LAV), was determined. The deduced genetic structure is unique: it shows, in addition to the retroviral gag, pol and env genes, 2 novel open reading frames termed Q and F. Remarkably, Q is located between pol and env and F is half-encoded by the U3 element of the LTR [long terminal repeat]. The data place LAV apart from the previously characterized family of human T cell leukemia/lymphoma viruses.
